Bob MacIntyre pipped in 125th US Open by brilliant birdie-birdie finish

Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... Even Bob MacIntyre applauded it while shouting 'wow' and no wonder. J.J. Spaun had already produced the shot of his life to get his nose in front in a dramatic final hour or so in the 125th US Open and then finished off the job in style. After a brilliant weekend performance at Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania, it looked as though MacIntyre, at the very worst, would get into a play-off after posting a clubhouse target of one-over-par and all he could do was wait and see. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad But, while Tyrrell Hatton, Carlos Ortiz, Viktor Hovland, Adam Scott and Sam Burns all came up short at the end of a brutal final day, Spaun came up with something special to deny the Oban man is his brave bid to become the first Scot to win a men's major since Paul Lawrie at Carnoustie in the 1999 Open. Bob MacIntyre reacts on the 18th green during the final round of the 125th US Open at Oakmont Country Club |The 34-year-old Californian could have stood on the 17th tee all day and not hit a better tee shot at the driveable par 4, setting up a great eagle chance but being glad of his birdie at that point in the proceedings. There was still hope for MacIntyre when Spaun found himself 64 feet from the hole with his approach at the last, but it was game over as he rolled in a birdie putt and, boy, did he enjoy that. After opening with five straight 5s, he rallied superbly to sign off with a 72, winning by two shots from MacIntyre with a one-under total as he ended up as the only player in the field to finish in red figures. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad It was Spaun's second win on the PGA Tour after landing his breakthrough in the 2022 Valero Texas Open. His previous best finish in a major was a tie for 23rd in The Masters the same year, but this wasn't exactly a bolt out of the blue. Earlier this year, he'd come close to winning The Players Championship, coming up a ball roll shy of landing the game's so-called fifth major before losing to Rory McIlroy in a play-off. 'I never thought I would be here holding this trophy,' admitted Spaun. 'I've always had aspirations and dreams. I never knew what my ceiling was. I never knew how good I could be, but I've been resilient in my career and pushed through a lot of things.' Spaun picked up a cheque for $4.3 million while MacIntyre's consolation for his best major finish to date - his previous best was a tie for sixth in his first outing in the game's marquee events in the 2019 Open at Royal Portrush - was a tidy $2.3 million. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'Obviously it didn't get off to the best of starts,' he said of a closing 68, which came on the back of an equally-impressive 69 on Saturday. 'I was two over through the and then holed a lovely putt on par-5 fourth (from 58 feet) for got me into somewhat of a groove and back in the golf tournament. Then the back nine was just all about fighting.' Referring to play having been suspended for more than 90 minutes due to flooding, he added: 'My previous rain delay comebacks haven't been strong. Today was a day that I said to myself, Why not? Why not it be me today? When I was going round, I just trusted myself, trusted my caddie Mike [Burrow], trusted all the work that I've done.' American J.J. Spaun shows off the trophy after winning the 125th US Open in Pennsylvania |The performance is set to leave MacIntyre in a strong position in the battle to make Luke Donald's European team for a Ryder Cup defence at Bethpage Black in September.

Horse racing tips: ‘She loves cut in the ground and this race suits' – Templegate's Monday NAP
IT'S ROYAL Ascot eve and Templegate is confident of building the bank for one of the biggest weeks of the year. Back a horse by clicking their odds below. CATTON LADY (3.45 Carlisle, nap) She has tumbled down the weights for Mick and David Easterby and still looked rusty at Ripon last time. Her last visit to Cumbria saw her finish a close third in a stronger race than this and she loves cut in the ground which is a certainty today. ROMANOVICH (3.30 Chepstow, nb) Got his act together to score over seven furlongs here last time. He's proven over this longer trip too and a 4lb rise in the weights looks more than fair. BRETTON WOOD (6.00 Windsor, treble) Has the benefit of Oisin Murphy in the saddle and went close on turf at Lingfield 13 days ago. He has enough pace for this trip and will be right there. Completes the Lucky 15. He has yet to finish out of the frame with his best efforts coming on turf. He looks to be crying out for this step up in distance.

Royal Ascot 'humdinger' whets John Gosden's appetite - with Lead Artist declared for the Queen Anne Stakes
John Gosden is expecting Royal Ascot to begin with a bang on Tuesday as the tone for five blistering days of action will be set by the race of the season. The six-time champion, who now trains with his son, Thady, has declared Lead Artist for the Queen Anne Stakes and while he has always held the four-year-old in the highest regard, he knows the colt could run a career best and still not finish in the top three. Lead Artist was a brilliant winner of Newbury's Lockinge Stakes last month, where he beat the reopposing Dancing Gemini, Rosallion and Notable Speech but Gosden knows the tables could easily be turned over Ascot's straight mile in the race that opens the meeting. 'It's a wonderful race,' said Gosden, who applied the finishing touches to Lead Artist's preparations last week with a gallop at Newmarket. 'From the line-up in the Lockinge, you've got the first four all turning up. Will they finish in the same order? That's the exciting thing — they're all fabulous horses. 'They're going to come on, aren't they? Both of them, Rosallion and Notable Speech. I think it's as good a Queen Anne as I've seen for a long time. We said that about the Lockinge, but now that they've got a race under their belt, it's quite a humdinger to start the meeting.' Gosden, who will also saddle hot favourite Field Of Gold in the St James's Palace Stakes later in the afternoon, is not overselling the situation. Connections of Rosallion, who is trained by Richard Hannon, and Godolphin's Notable Speech are both adamant they will be closer to Lead Artist. 'It's exciting, isn't it?' said Gosden. 'It's what Ascot is all about. Lead Artist is improving. I like his enthusiasm and he's matured a lot, mentally — some of us do when we get older! There will be a fabulous line-up in a lot of races.' Intrigue is added to this plot line as Kieran Shoemark, who lost his job as one of the frontline riders for the Gosden team, will be riding Roger Teal's improving colt Dancing Gemini. Shoemark was out of luck in France on Sunday, when he finished unplaced on Shes Perfect in the Prix De Diane at Chantilly, but he cannot wait to get back on board Dancing Gemini after the pair were successful at Doncaster in March. 'He ran a huge race in the Lockinge,' Shoemark said. 'I know the horse very well and it's very exciting.' Tuesday until Saturday, all races will be LIVE on ITV from 1.30pm.
